Built in 1764, Fort Pitt is regarded as the birthplace of Pittsburgh. Now an indoor-outdoor museum, the facility offers guided and self-guided tours designed to educate visitors about the integral role the region played in the early days of the U.S. And it's not just for history buffs: The fort has programming and displays that will also engage and entertain kids.
The Fort Pitt Museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
